Watching the much parodied war movie 'Downfall' the other day, I couldn't help but notice that when the subtitles said "He shot his brains out" or "he shot himself in the head", I can't remember exactly, I heard what sounded like "kugel".
Knowing that this was some sort of dessert, I was interested enough to check it out.
"Kugel" means "ball" in German, I was kind of confused...I mean, it sounds like Hitler shot himself in the testicle, or in his after dinner pudding.
I suppose an English similarity would be when people say they were "hit in the melon" when they mean "head".
"Kugel"...almost seems like the sound your brains would make as they ran out from your broken skull.
Have a nice day, keep your melons and balls away from guns.:)
